Question Posted Tuesday January 16 2007, 2:51 pm

I'm a freshman this year and this semester I have to do a report on being pregnant as a teenager. I have to write it like it was a journal and I was the teenager that just found out they were pregnant.

I've never experienced a relative being pregnant or being born.

I'm supposed to use my health book as a guideline and ask from several different people that have had children what their experiences were like.

I've already asked this question to one person on here, but I thought I'd go ahead and ask it to the rest of the site.

1) How [doctor, home pregnancy test, etc.] and how long into your first pregnancy did you find out you were pregnant?

2) Did you have morning sickness during your first pregnancy? If so, about how far along did it start and how long did it last?

3) About when did you start 'showing' during your first pregnancy?

4) [About your due date] Were you early, ontime, or late with your first pregnancy?



Thank you a ton, if you can help. Please forgive me if it's too personal.

Well i'm a teenager and I'm pregnant right now.
1. I found out by pregnancy test because my parents found out my boyfriend and i were sexually active and wanted to put me on birth control and made me take a test first. I went to the doctor because it was positive, and he gave me another one which was also positive. He did a pap smear to find out where the fetus was positioned and pelvic tests. He drew blood and gave me nasty vitamins. I went in 3 days later for a ultra sound and it showed that i was 8 weeks pregnant already.(I kind of figured i was because my period was late but i was terrified to tell my parents or my boyfriend)

2.I had horrible morning sickness the first 4 months but, my school counseler told me that i could eat during class and gave me crackers and that helped alot with the nausea and what not. It started 3 weeks before i found out so i guess in my 5th week.

3. I wa pretty fit when i got pregnant. On the drill team so i started showing in my third month but I didn't start getting big until recently...My 7th month.

4.My duedate is March 12th and the doctor has moved it back a few days because the baby i bigger than it should be for this time. It was origionally due on March 20th.

I'm 16 and I'm supposed to be a mother exactly a week before my 17th birthday.
At first I was terrified what would the girls from drill team and school think. Well anyone really. Mostly my teachers. i found out it was a boy last month I didn't want to find out but my Boyfriend did so we could buy it clothes. The thing i'm most worried about is it being terribly premature or being still born(born dead) I stopped worrying about what people thought about me and realized this is reality I'm going to be a mother now and I need to act like it. I'm excited now.. What will he look like? How big will he be? Am I sure it's a Boy? And OMG what am I going to do runs through my head all day.

I know I haven't had this child yeat but i thought it would be nice to let you know from a teenage mothers prespective.
Hope I helped you some.

lotsa Love Alix


Thank you..
and i hope i helped your report some...
